Calabrian Chiles, Whole
To celebrate her new book, Good Things, we collaborated with chef Samin Nosrat to source a delicious, limited-edition collection of pantry essentials that will help you recreate some of her most beloved and useful recipes.
“If I could only keep one type of hot pepper on hand, it would be Calabrian chiles,” she writes in Good Things. “To borrow a phrase from the late poet Thomas Lux, these Southern Italian peppers are ‘a lit-from-within red.” Fruity and moderately spicy, their warmth comes on slowly and fills your mouth as you eat.”
Add whole Calabrian chiles to beans or braises, or crush or chop them to add flavor to pasta, pizza or sauces. In Good Things, Samin uses them in pickled onions, warm olives and a Calabrian chile crisp.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this product will be donated to Oakland International High School.
